John,

Glad you liked!

There is still room to improve it, of course. The way I did the 'howClose'
counter the $(cur)data('howClose',closer); was bothering me a little. Then I
remembered of the core internals and changed it to
$(cur).data('howClose',closer).
But it's still been used for every found element and I didn't cleanup after
the sort (didn't know if is needed). I did not want to create a new
parameter for closer because this is API stuff. But when you look to it
again may be you want to add it:

closest: function( selector, useCounter ) {
    // ....
    if(useCounter) jQuery.data(cur, 'howClose', closer);
    // ....
}
